Nick, Rainer, et al,

The term I remember is "double-shutter," and I think the term came from the 70mm days, when theater patrons demanded a smoother experience.

Each frame of regular 24 fps movies are shown twice or more in a process called "double-shuttering" to reduce flicker.[6]

@MH7 - OK, thanks for detailed reply and I understand know what you meant. And the US-UK/AU Canon differences don't make any sense, and sorry you have that disadvantage. As to my query, looks like I am on the lucky side of that disadvantage. Since I can also tend to slow down footage in Vegas for much of my style of footage, I have never shot in anything lower than 60fps.

@Musicvid - Interesting about the Yoda-Krishnamurti thing. I've known of the latter for quite some time though I have not seen any videos of his, except for some short excerpt long ago, maybe. Mostly written material.
As to those of mentioned such as you - Vegas Yodas: besides the strong tendency to self-teach, pretty much everything else I've learned is from all of you here. So like it or not, you of them one are. :)

Well I see he's all over YouTube these days, so one can draw his own conclusion.

I was more convinced he was Yoda's role model by some lectures in b/w I watched, probably from the 1980s.

MH7 - the Canon HFG10 has of course been superseded by the G20, then G30 and now G40. The latter does 1080 50p but not 4k. I suspect 50p came in with G20. The difference between the G10 PAL and NTSC versions may just have been technology leapfrogging.

We've got way OT so an OT passing comment - nowadays some are so obsessed with image quality that content suffers. I'd rather watch an old video with interesting content than a boring video with immaculate image quality.

@EricLNZ - I get your point. But if it is my question or not that you consider OT, I'm not coming from a viewer's standpoint but as a content creator/editor's one - as it is for others asking/addressing similar questions here.

That is, wanting to have have good "image quality" from the get-go is not unreasonable at all.
It cuts down on in-post "repair" work....
